Door lock

Did you ever get a answer for this?

This is a response to the post seen at:

I"m sure it will. If not, how would one open a locked car when the battery was dead.

In fact, I am the duke of dischargeed batteries. I've had to solicit jumps over 100 times on the streets of Chicago, NYC, and Baltimore. Once I even got one from a very pretty young black woman. Usually women won't stop at all, let alone pretty ones.

But then I got Battery Buddy, and when it stopped working and was no longer for sale, I got Priority Start, which is at least twice as expnsive, but well worth it. They both disconnect the battery before it's so dead it won't start the car.

My 5-year battery has 4 months left on it but it's already terrible and even leaving the LED??? dome light on overnight will discharge the battery. This or something similar happened 3 or 4 times in the last 18 months including less than 3 months ago and the key still opened the lock of course.

This is a 2005 Toyota Solara but if that seems too different from your car, go back to my first paragraph. ;-)
